{{Q|The '''bidirectional reflectance distribution function''' ('''BRDF''') is a function of four real variables that defines how light is reflected at an [[w:Opacity (optics)|opaque]] surface. It is employed in the [[w:optics|optics]] of real-world light, in [[w:computer graphics|computer graphics]] algorithms, and in [[w:computer vision|computer vision]] algorithms.|Wikipedia|[[w:bidirectional reflectance distribution function|BRDF]]}}

'''No camera''' ('''!''') refers to the fact that a simulation of a camera is not a camera. If people realize the differences, and thus the different restrictions by many types of laws e.g. physics, physiology. Analogously see [[#No microphone]], usually seen below this entry.
